Welcome to the Center for Organ Recovery & Education

There are many faces of donation. Some are the faces of people waiting for a life-saving or life-enhancing transplant. Some are those who can enjoy another day because someone said "yes" to donation. Many remind us to celebrate life through their gift of organ and tissue donation. At the Center for Organ Recovery & Education (CORE), we want to add another face to donation: yours. Please browse our website to learn the facts on donation, read the personal accounts of lives touched by donation and discover how you can help.

 

"Let the leaves symbolize the donors.

Like softly fallen petals that nourish the earth, they have touched the lives of others."
